Chapter 4, Stranger
Qiao Feng shared this idea with his brother, and Wu Wen was so angry that he kept hitting his head, resenting him for being unambitious. Previously, when Qiao Feng was so proactive in blind dates, he thought that the brat had finally come to his senses.
Wu Wen felt that he must have misunderstood the situation
The girl in the blue shirt is somewhat strange; what kind of incredible luck has she been having lately to keep encountering such exceptionally handsome men
She is somewhat worried, not knowing how much he has heard... In case he overheard her complaints about the client and it gets out... The circle is so small, her performance relies entirely on maintaining client resources, and she cannot afford to tarnish her reputation
Professor Wu's gaze suddenly became profound, as he looked at the camera with an expression that only men could understand. After a considerable pause, he finally replied, "Alright"
Song Zicheng played with the business card in his hand. The bright yellow card danced and flipped continuously between his fingers, his fair and slender fingers agile and elegant, making even the ordinary color seem to suddenly evoke a noble lineage, calm and magnificent like an ancient royal family.
"Second brother, keep an eye on the eldest brother, and do not let him bully others"
Lan Shan was quite certain that she had not misheard this time. She was somewhat irritated, "What on earth is going on? Why don't you just come out already!"
I am the one who should apologize; I did not intend to eavesdrop on your conversation
Wu Wen nodded and said, "Bring back some local specialties from Japan"
After finishing lunch, when it was time to say goodbye, Professor Wu could not help but give a lengthy admonition, "Eldest, take good care of the second one, and do not let anyone bully him"
However, what she has left with him is only her understanding of the situation
On the bright yellow cardstock, two bold black characters in size 3 Kai font stand out prominently: Blue Shirt
Unable to meet in person, but video calls are still possible. Communication is inconvenient at Professor Qiao's location, and there are no conditions for internet access; therefore, Qiao Feng has only connected with Professor Wu.
It is quite interesting; she encountered a potential client in the corridor of the office area. The man in the blue shirt felt a bit awkward as he led him back to the reception area of the exhibition hall. While walking, the two exchanged a few words, and the man in the blue shirt learned that his name was Song Zicheng, who was looking to buy a car for himself. When asked about his preferences, he replied that it depended on his mood
Their family has a tradition, which is that no matter how busy they are, they always set aside time each week to have a meal together with their family. However, now their parents are no longer in City B
No
He feels somewhat helpless, "I am behind you."
Qiao Feng calmly revealed, "Not only do I want to help myself, but I also want to assist my brother."
Professor Wu was very excited, "Son! Long time no see!"
It is evident that Song Zicheng is quite satisfied with her response. The two of them do not seem to be engaged in a vehicle transaction, but rather in an interview.
As for why such a high-quality client was not received in the showroom and ended up lost in the office area... this remains a mystery for the time being
Dear, I have received the skirt, thank you, dear! The voice on the other end of the phone was gentle and serene, like soft silk
Wu Wen picked up a piece of rib. The inch-long rib was coated with an amber-colored thick sauce, sprinkled with a few sesame seeds, and emitted a tempting aroma that made one's fingers itch with desire. He asked, "The camera is nice, did you just buy it?" As he spoke, he lowered his head and took a bite of the rib, which was sweet and sour, rich and fragrant without being greasy
It is broad daylight, so it cannot possibly be a ghost. Could it be that she was too excited and imagined it?
"I am so sorry!" She felt embarrassed about her lapse in composure and bent down to pick up her phone. The phone had fallen and the screen was black, having automatically ended the call.
Lan Shan accompanied Song Zicheng to view several car models. He asked many questions, some of which were quite challenging. Lan Shan patiently answered each one. To be honest, although Song Zicheng appeared somewhat fierce, she preferred clients like him. His questions were very professional, which made her feel a sense of accomplishment while answering, and she felt particularly knowledgeable and impressive.
What do you understand? This is an internet slang... Let me see what you are eating
Little Bok Choy comforted Blue Shirt on the other end of the phone, cursing that legendary old lecher. Little Bok Choy's voice was crisp, and when she spoke quickly, it sounded like setting off firecrackers, crackling and popping, invigorating the listener and effectively refreshing and energizing them
After disconnecting from his father, Wu Wen tapped on Qiao Feng's rice bowl and said, "Do you have any objections to me arranging a blind date for you?"
Qiao Feng corrected him, "Dad, we only saw each other last weekend"
When will you be back?" Wu Wen asked his father
Professor Wu, the father, is employed in the Department of Civil Engineering at University A and is currently serving as a visiting professor in Japan as a renowned scholar, where he will stay for a period of time; Professor Qiao, the mother, is employed in the Department of Folk Literature at University B and is currently taking students to the ethnic minority regions of Guangxi to collect folk songs, a practice colloquially referred to as "fieldwork"
She did not continue to ask further, exchanged a few affectionate words with him, and hung up the phone
What is all this about
Once he left, the woman in the blue shirt had no choice but to switch to sarcasm on the phone, "If he looked like Wu Yanzu, I could accept a little loss, just consider it a contribution to world peace... But he shows up looking like a chubby version of Wu Mengda, how am I supposed to stomach that? My heart is willing, but my strength is insufficient!"
The two brothers sat at the dining table, and Qiao Feng pressed a button on the television remote, causing Professor Wu's face to appear on the widescreen display
He was momentarily dazzled by her smile, caught in a brief moment of distraction, and then he replied, "I can take a look first"
Professor Wu replied, "Summer vacation"
At noon, just as Qiao Feng had finished setting the table with the dishes, his elder brother arrived
His elder brother is named Wu Wen, and the two brothers have different surnames, one taking the father's surname and the other taking the mother's surname
Wu Wen suddenly remembered something. He took out a business card and placed it on the table. "I checked out a car for you. I originally planned to pick it up in the next few days, but I have to go out of town due to an unexpected matter. If you find yourself with nothing to do, feel free to pick it up yourself; if not, I can help you pick it up when I return. This is the business card of that person, quite a decent individual."
... ... good
No. Qiao Feng said this not because he enjoys blind dates. Recently, he invented a software that inputs information about potential blind date partners collected from various channels, and the software can autonomously analyze the person's personality and preferences, as well as conduct matching analysis. With this software, there will be no need to go out for blind dates in the future, saving a lot of trouble. His frequent blind dates these days are also for the purpose of software testing and obtaining sample data.

He is wearing a black silk satin shirt and a black suit, without a tie. The brand of the suit is not discernible, but the material is exquisite, suggesting a high price, and it is likely custom-made. The suit features a tailored design at the waist, with smooth lines that subtly curve, accentuating his straight and broad shoulders, as well as his narrow waist and long legs
As the man in the blue shirt turned around, he had already approached very closely, exceeding the safe distance between strangers. Suddenly, a living person appeared before him, and the man in the blue shirt let out a startled "Ah!" and was so frightened that he dropped his phone.
Moreover, his continuous focus on such profound issues undoubtedly indicates that he is a person of unique depth. Such individuals are not likely to be interested in spreading gossip. Therefore, her reputation can be preserved
She made a clever move, covering the microphone and looking up, scanning the surroundings with caution, but there was no one around
Wu Wenshu said, "Old man, how long have you been in Japan, and your accent has already changed."
She thought to herself, yet remained composed on the surface. She put away her phone, quickly adjusted her emotions, and smiled at him, saying, "Sir, are you interested in buying a car?"
Qiao Feng's eyes were fixed on the television screen as he replied, "No, it is my own modification"
The dishes were photographed once, and the angle of the camera has returned to its original position
She asked again, "Are you coming back tonight?"
The woman in the blue shirt once again dismissed a peculiar customer. She felt a bit tired and hid in a corner to call Xiao Youcai
As soon as he sat in the car, his phone rang. Song Zicheng answered the call
High-end automobile sales is a peculiar profession. For the sake of brand image, there is often a tendency to judge candidates by their appearance when hiring sales personnel, which leads to a situation where attractive young men and women may be taken away by clients at any moment. Relatively speaking, the brand represented by the blue shirts is more low-key and not favored by the nouveau riche, so this situation is not particularly severe. It is said that a certain competitor's 4S store has to recruit a new batch of sales personnel every few months.

Qiao Feng's gaze shifted slightly, inadvertently glancing at the business card.
The time difference between China and Japan is only one hour. They each postpone and advance by half an hour, respectively, to have lunch together
The man in the blue shirt continued to talk on the phone with the little rapeseed.
Professor Wu scolded Wu Wen, threatening to inform Professor Qiao, which caused Wu Wen to restrain himself a little.
At the end of the interview, he still did not clearly state whether he would buy or not. The woman in the blue shirt did not show the slightest impatience; after all, she had already exceeded her monthly sales target and had signed a contract worth over 2 million. It was not worth it to bow down for a mere handful of rice.
Some sushi, as well as fruits and soup, appeared on the television
Amidst the series of small firecrackers exploding, Lan Shan suddenly heard a faint and indistinct hum.
You are simply bored to death
Such words carry no threat, and Wu Wen continued to eat heartily. The three of them chatted while eating, and Professor Wu inquired about their recent matchmaking activities. Wu Wen informed Professor Wu that Qiao Feng had been frequently engaging in matchmaking recently
Meanwhile, a certain man standing not far behind the man in the blue shirt realized that he had been ignored. He slightly furrowed his brow and then gently cleared his throat
Professor Wu lamented on television, "It is all my favorite food! You are too cruel!"
He is truly a person of discernment
Wu Wen was somewhat pleased, deliberately exaggerating as he chewed and swallowed the food in his mouth. He asked, "Old man, what are you eating? Let me see."
"Sir, you are too polite." Lan Shan straightened up to look at him, only to realize that this person was exceptionally handsome, with refined features, though his brows were somewhat sharp, giving him a slightly fierce appearance, and his demeanor was rather cold
Professor Wu was filled with indignation, "You wait!"
Wu Wenfa let out a light laugh, "chih"
Song Zicheng took Lan Shan's business card and left amidst her farewell. He hailed a taxi, took a round, and then returned to a parking lot near the 4S store
Rest assured
However, just because there is not much does not mean there is none. The client that Lan Shan encountered today was somewhat excessive. He was not physically aggressive, but he incessantly provoked others with his words. Lan Shan could not lose his temper and could only force a smile, trying to find a way to counter him with minimal effort.
Hearing her implied expression of gratitude, he responded expressionlessly with a simple, "Mm."
Qiao Feng picked up another smaller remote control and pressed a button, lowering the camera installed above the television, shaking his head and nodding as if his eyes were scanning the dining table. Wu Wen saw a switching screen appear in the lower right corner of the television, displaying the dishes on their own dining table: cold shredded lettuce, spinach with eggs, crystal shrimp, sweet and sour ribs, and a bowl of crucian carp and tofu soup.
But what is even stranger is... who is he
